Cancer urban legends: True or not true? Ask the experts (w/ VIDEO)

With so many cancer myths and urban legends out there, why not ask the experts? They can debunk cancer myths while sharing cancer facts that matter, such as risk factors, prevention and the research underway at City of Hope.

Or join us on April 23 in Duarte to hear from physicians and researchers together. Moderator Linda H.
